There's a need for your
critikal eval(U)ation
systems of caste and class
stratification still
exist--unjustly--not known
white theories of modernization
sweeping the nation
cleaning us out of house and home
unfair dust & dirt treatment
are swept quickly under the carpet
and it's ...the only time you see whitey
holding a broom...
laws still favor the rich, when
impoverished blacks still
find money to consume --
or ~while we purchase our freedom~
laws still favor the rich
as they savor the flavor of wealth
with the highly concentrated opinion
that the inferior does not exist
or that no other race can sit at
the head of the table, and to this
[singing]... I wish ... I wish ... I wish ...
for John the Baptist to say
~ "REPENT white man, REPENT"
our socioeconomic status has whitey
jumpin' around the streets
like jack rabbits
tryin' to stay
ahead
of
the
game
not knowing or realizing that -- we played
hopscotch and double dutch in school too.....!
While we as a people still divided,
lack unity;
stealin' lyin' shootin' killin' feedin' the enemy
nihilistic thoughts of
Self Less Love Lost Lowered Esteem --
white society's chanting
"Self Sufficiency, Self Sufficiency"
for the inefficient, inept, and inferior
but I choose neither,
...for none are of me
when you look around we just
happen to be
became becoming have become the M-A-J-O-R-I-T-Y
and you and I don't belong at the
bottomless pit of the unjust's [Liar]archy
But what are your valUes
What is our statUS
Where do you stand
How do you distinguish the difference
in this black built ~ white man's land
My concept is knowledge
...education, teaching and learning be the keys
to the door unlocking chains bolted of
Amerikkkas hypocracies...
which remain
countless -
Dimensions of Inequities
WE need to operate on the CONflict ya'll

...don't let our black/brown children
bare this burden as we pass on...
